Abstract:
Conservation of grapevine biodiversity in the Caucasus and Northern Black Sea Region is particularly urgent because of: 1) the large number of traditional local varieties out of cultivation; 2) the relevance of these resources for the development of European modern cultivars; 3) the financial difficulties in the countries; 4) the occurrence of Vitis vinifera ssp. silvestris throughout the region; 5) wine production as a major potential source of income for the local population in the region. In 2004- 2005, significant progress has been made within a collaborative project aimed at strengthening the capacity of the countries of the region (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Moldova, Russia, and Ukraine) to ensure the long-term maintenance of Vitis genetic resources, including the cultivated traditional varieties and the wild resources. The activities include identifying, collecting, characterizing, and conserving the diversity of grapevine genetic resources as a basis to improve local viticulture and winemaking industry.
